my braintumour dream

I am at some large cafe with H and our children. H tells me that a government agency has told her that I have a brain tumour. this is rather a shock to me. then I am lying down in her house or rather a large hall while a nurse she has arranged aims a radiotherapy machine at my head. I lie down while some other people walk around. then we are back at the table and she is telling me about all the scans of my skull she has seen including some oblique (ho) fisure that runs through my skull. I am impatient to learn more from her. I am trying to adjust to this news and thinking of our children who are at the table too. Then I think this is just the kind of situation that could be a dream so I shake and shake my head saying 'this is only a dream'. It doesn't work and I say 'So this isn't a dream'. then I shake and shake more vigourously and then wake.
